We've been using the reading posters in our classroom library corner, and they've already made a difference. During independent reading time, students often refer to the posters for guidance and encouragement. They're not just reading more—they're understanding more. The math and grammar posters have also become key reference tools during lessons. Whether we're reviewing parts of speech or practicing multiplication tables, students now have visual anchors that help reinforce what they're learning.

These materials have greatly enriched our novel study experience, especially through our work with Because of Mr. Terupt, by allowing students to move beyond surface level reading and engage in deeper comprehension, thoughtful discussion, and reflective writing.\r\n\r\nBecause of Mr. Terupt has been especially powerful in helping students explore themes such as empathy, forgiveness, and personal growth. Through the lens of multiple narrators, students have learned to analyze point of view, understand character motivations, and draw inferences supported by textual evidence. These are critical literacy skills that will support their academic growth for years to come.\r\n\r\nReading in our classroom is now an active and purposeful part of our day. Students participate in small-group discussions, respond to text through writing prompts, and reflect on how the story connects to their own experiences. The writing packs and guided materials you helped fund have made it easier to differentiate instruction and engage all learners, regardless of their starting point.\r\n\r\nThis project has brought literature to life for my students and created a more inclusive, thoughtful classroom community.
